Document Description
Consider a request from the applicant for approval of an Administrative Review Permit (ARP) to replace the existing 36-foot cellular monopole with a new 85-foot stealth monopine cellular tower (90 feet to top of faux branches) consisting of four antennas, four remote radio units, two cables and associated cabinets and equipment at an existing T Mobile wireless communications facility at 2235 Alpine Circle Road near River Road (aka State Route 89) in Alpine Meadows. This facility was originally approved in the early 2000’s with an Administrative Approval (AA-047). There have been subsequent Administrative Approvals and Administrative Review Permits since that time, allowing for modifications, including adding and removing antennas, radios, and associated infrastructure. The monopole replacement proposal that is the subject of this Administrative Review Permit was approved under a previous Administrative Review Permit (PLN22- 00178), which expired on March 21, 2026, and was not constructed withing the permit expiration window.
